Night photograph of a riverside ghat at a temple, with people bathing waist-deep in dark water behind a metal railing. Many devotees stand along the steps under bright floodlights, and some wear white or red clothing. A black signboard with Devanagari text stands on the railing, and a long yellow banner with Marathi text runs along the building above. A few people in the water are bare-chested and wear blue or dark shorts; others wear saris. No individual can be confidently identified as a person from appearance, so no candidate is marked.
